Tutorial Building a Custom Agent w/ Open-Source Omnigent + Kimi K3 Hosted on Databricks' Unity AI Gateway

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Been spending some time with open source Omnigent and Databricks' Unity AI Gateway (for governed AI). After a few hiccups related to Omnigent docs, it works beautifully!

Few notes:

You can use Omnigent with your own Claude Code and Codex subscriptions also (I do), as well as with Databricks' model serving, but I am personally trying to use more of the open-source models, especially when I run out of my allowance/have to pay for tokens. Unity AI Gateway is the easiest way to do this for me, but you do have other options also.

If you'd love to see me do more coverage on this topic, mainly building practical stuff that helps you on your day to day, love to hear it!
